Description

The putamina of implantable drug delivery system
Technical field
The present invention relates to the putamina (membrane shell) of the drug-supplying system (dosage system) of activating agent, be specifically related to be used for subcutaneous application and in the long period with the putamina of the drug-supplying system of amount (steady amount) release bioactive agent stably.More specifically, the present invention relates to contain the putamina of closable joint (closablejoint).The invention still further relates to implantable drug delivery system (implantable dosage system) or implant (implant), described implantable drug delivery system or implant comprise according to putamina of the present invention and are embedded in the described putamina and contain one or more nuclear cores (core) of activating agent.
Background technology
Be used for subcutaneous application and in the given period with given speed most preferably so that the drug-supplying system or the implant of speed release bioactive agent can be divided into four groups substantially stably.
In matrix type implant (matrix-type implant), activating agent is dispersed in the carrier material matrix.Described carrier mass can be porous or non-porous solid or porous or non-porous semisolid, and described carrier mass can see through activating agent or not see through activating agent.The matrix type implant can be biodegradable, makes them will slowly degrade after administration stops.On the other hand, nondegradable matrix type implant comes release bioactive agent by diffusion through the wall or the hole of described substrate.The matrix type implant is easy to make, but they can not be used to send some activating agent.The problem of matrix type implant is to realize rate of release (zero order kinetics) stably, and this is because rate of release depends on the concentration of activating agent in substrate usually.
Nuclear core pattern implant (core-type implant) comprises nuclear core/chamber (bank) that contains activating agent and the film (rate controlling membranes (rate controllingmembrane, rcm)) that centers on described nuclear core/chamber and sustained release speed.Described film can be a porous or non-porous, but it is not biodegradable usually.The rate of release of nuclear core pattern implant is easier to keep constant usually, and this is because rate of release only mainly depends on the surface area of film.
The 3rd group is the so-called implant (hybrid implant) that mixes, and it contains matrix core in the rate controlling membranes inboard.
Other drug delivery system can be in itself machinery and contain small electrodynamic pump or the osmotic pumps that medicine is housed.Be easy to realize release stably with this class device, but they are very expensive, therefore can not compete with matrix type implant and nuclear core pattern implant.
Open text GB 1,157,370 has disclosed the implant of subcutaneous use, and this implant is made up of porous (sieve sample) top layer, porous (sieve sample) bottom, the thick relatively inertia internal layer and the annular sidewall that are used for tablet (drug pellet).The shell of described implant can followingly be made: for example be two independent parts with polyethylene molding or be molded as by hinge two parts connected to one another.This solution is characterised in that very the structure of complexity is made up of many independent parts, and the assembling of described implant becomes and requires great effort very much and difficulty thus.
Open text EP 1100669 has disclosed the implantable drug delivery system that makes by injection moulding.According to the disclosure text, can limit the shape of implant according to purpose, mentioned ring-type or bar-shaped implant particularly.Nuclear core in shell or film inboard can be a solution basically, and perhaps it can contain air, and perhaps it can be the solution suspension of activating agent or the powder type of activating agent.In this manufacturing technology, during the manufacturing of putamina, medicine is bonded in the implant.
At the activator administration system that is used for subcutaneous purposes according to prior art, in most of the cases determining amount and the intensity of activating agent with regard to product needed in the manufacture process at final products before the manufacturing of final products or at the latest.For example, in nuclear core pattern solution, the nuclear core that perhaps will contain activating agent during the manufacturing of putamina is combined in the film inboard, perhaps afterwards by using for example dip-coating to form shell on the nuclear core.
Contain film and be generally bar-shaped or cyclic, in these implants, perhaps activating agent is bonded in the implant equally, perhaps on completed nuclear core, formed shell afterwards with extruding simultaneously of film based on the implant of extruding technology.
Although having the implant of different shape and size with different technology manufacturings is known, but the problem that exists is, the implant with the particular form preparation that is used for specific purposes strictly is limited to certain pattern and certain way activating agent is embedded in the film inboard.Should advantageously the putamina with same structure/shape can be used for various purposes and also for example form and intensity according to using the activating agent of determining needs in light of the circumstances.

For example, the first half groove can be discontinuous, and the second half projection will correspondingly be discontinuous thus, make when the inner surface of the described two halves of arrangement toward each other the time the first half groove and the second half projection will become and offset.Discontinuous among the application is meant that the closure edge of arranging along the periphery of shell half (membrane shellhalf) comprises the discrete groove with certain-length or the discrete projection with certain-length continuously and between the described groove or the flat site between described projection, makes closure edge become basically along the continuum that the whole periphery of described shell half is extended.
Closable joint also can be a cogwheel type (cogwheel-type), and the first half continuous closure edge alternately comprises projection and groove with certain cycle thus.Correspondingly, the second half continuous closure edge will alternately comprise groove and projection with certain cycle.Described two halves are arranged to inner surface toward each other, make half the projection of winning place the second half groove, and on the other hand, make the second half projection place the first half groove, form according to closable joint of the present invention this moment.Continuous recess and the number of projection in the closure edge zone can be determined in light of the circumstances.
In the above-described embodiment, described projection and groove are set, make that the frequency with 1 time/unit length comprises single groove or single projection to closure edge in horizontal (lateral direction) last (in the zone with regard to Fig. 1 between described half inward flange and outward flange).
According to the present invention, described closure edge also can be in transversely comprising of closure edge (side by side) arranged side by side a plurality of (for example two) groove and/or projection.Described groove and/or projection can be side by side along whole length of closure edge or only arrange along the partial-length of closure edge.Groove of arranging side by side and/or number of protrusions are subjected to following true the restriction: on the one hand, the size of implant can not ad infinitum increase, and on the other hand, should keep enough spaces for the nuclear core that contains activating agent.
Except above-mentioned selectable closure edge, the layout of projection and/or groove and/or flat site other type in the closure edge zone also can be expected.For the present invention importantly, one or more grooves of the first half of described putamina and/or one or more projection and the second half one or more projectioies and/or one or more groove offset, and this causes described two halves closely to connect by snap-fit joint.According to the present invention, closable joint is located substantially on described half edge or periphery.
Fig. 1 illustrates the most preferred embodiment of the present invention about closable joint.In this most preferred embodiment, closable joint comprises the first half the continuous closure edge that contains continuous groove and the second half the continuous closure edge that contains continuous projection.
At least one projection of closable joint and the cross section profile of groove can be any cross section profiles that is suitable for application target.For example, it can have so-called dovetail profile (dovetail profile), and some broadens its protrusions (convex), and groove (spill) is correspondingly broadening on the direction of bottom portion of groove.
Principle well known by persons skilled in the art is followed in design/typing (design/sizing) that protruding and groove carry out, and described principle is relevant with injection molding technology on the one hand, and relevant with the function of closable joint on the other hand.What must consider with regard to injection molding technology is, for example the second half projection must and mold separation, perhaps contrary tapering (reverse taper) (negative angle (negative angle)) is necessarily not too big.In the design of closable joint, the most basic is that described two halves are connected to each other by the junction surface.
The term snap-fit joint that is used for closable joint among the application not necessarily is meant the title according to described junction surface, when projection and groove offset when making that described two halves are connected to each other, should hear any patter sound (snapping voice).Yet the principle of snap-fit joint has been described the closed mechanism of using best in the connection according to the two halves of putamina of the present invention.
According to closable joint of the present invention (being snap-fit joint) is one-way type (unidirectional type), and described one-way type is meant to be not intended to opens the junction surface.If afterwards for some reason, for example in order to check possible authentication information (identification information), and have to open the junction surface, then this will cause the damage at least to a certain extent of putamina structure inevitably.
According to a kind of embodiment, can on the first half closure edge and/or the second half closure edge, use and promote the bonded material of described two halves, for example be suitable for the binding agent of described application, be preferably the organosilicon binding agent.
Be when will be by closable joint closed, between described two halves, to form chamber (17) from what Fig. 1 b can obviously find out according to the putamina of Fig. 1 a.The first half hole, chamber (18) forms first side in chambeies (17), and the second half hole, chamber (19) forms second side in chambeies (17).The size and dimension in chamber (17) can be selected according to application.
Also can design, make in putamina, to form two or more chambeies putamina.For example, then can use this embodiment if wish in conjunction with several different activating agents in same implant inboard.
Under the situation in hole, two or more chambeies, the width of the closure edge of shell half is by limiting at the point of the ragged edge in the immediate hole of outward flange of position and described shell half and the distance between the outward flange.The point of the ragged edge in the immediate hole of outward flange of position and described shell half is meant the shortest point of outward flange distance described hole and described shell half.Under the situation in hole, a plurality of chamber, described partly do not have actual inward flange, but the width of closure edge limits as mentioned above.
Comprise the closure edge that extends to the zone of described half outward flange (13,15) from described half inward flange (14,16) and have certain design, make closable joint work by described two halves are connected to each other.The design that closure edge is carried out refer in particular to closure edge width (for example in the distance between described half inward flange and described half the outward flange), groove and projection design (for example cross section profile) and at horizontal and vertical upper groove and/or projection the position in the zone in closure edge (for example one that connect another and/or arranged side by side and successive/discontinuous).
According to a kind of embodiment, hole, described one or more chamber can only be arranged in half, and the inboard of second half closure edge is smooth thus.The width of the closure edge of half of hole does not limit according to half the width of closure edge as homologue (counterpart).Being arranged in different half holes also can be not in opposite directions, thus formation chamber in different half.
The hole, chamber can have Any shape, and for example it can be circular or oval-shaped.Also can ring-type arrange in described half the zone that closure edge limited by and/or two in one or more holes.
Must limit the degree of depth in hole, chamber, make that the mechanical endurance (mechanicaldurability) of implant in application is enough.The thickness of described shell half or must make that in the Zone Full of the distance between inner surface and the outer surface implant tolerates the required time and be not damaged (for example caving in) in application in described shell half.
According to the embodiment shown in Fig. 1 (this embodiment is most preferred embodiment with regard to the chamber), putamina comprises a chamber (17), and described chamber (17) are formed by the hole in opposite directions (18,19) of first half-sum the second half.
Fig. 2 illustrates putamina according to Fig. 1 before closure and sketch map afterwards.This figure also illustrates the film hinge.
Can freely select according to the shape of putamina of the present invention and design, this also is suitable for the outward appearance of the implant made thus.Must comprise the closable joint that is located substantially on edge and between the two halves of putamina, be used to place one or more one or more chambeies that contain the nuclear core of activating agent according to putamina of the present invention.The outward appearance of implant can be selected according to the object of treatment.Have columned design according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, make the horizontal cross-section of cylinder be basically circle (Fig. 1 a) or oval.The height of cylindric implant can be constant basically, perhaps its can be for example in edge than thin.According to the cylindric implant with oval cross section of the present invention can be especially in the end of ellipse than thin.
Implant also can contain the lobe (protruding part) with difformity and design, and described lobe for example is used for when implant is helped combination when the object for the treatment of removes.The shape of lobe and its position in implant can be selected based on the needs due to the application of the application target of lobe and/or implant.Lobe can be (handle-shaped) of handle-shaped for example, makes when removing implant, places the hole of handle and pull out implant under the help of described hook removing hook.Being used for the implant of long-term purposes, should avoid extra lobe, this is to form because described lobe may increase scar tissue.Main points with regard to the implant shape are that implant should be comfortable as much as possible in it is used.
The size of putamina, shape and wall thickness should make implant tolerate the required time in application.Life-span according to implant of the present invention can be several days or several thoughtful several years.Usually, the life-span is a some months to five year.Can be used for the subcutaneous sustained release of activating agent according to implant of the present invention the human and animal.
The overall dimension of design that putamina is carried out and corresponding implant can change based on application.Under applicable cases or at putamina closed and one or more nuclear cores that contain activating agent be in shell when inboard the overall diameter of implant can be preferably 5-20mm for for example 5-40mm, and most preferably it is 10mm.Particularly, the length of oval implant can be greater than 20mm, for example 40mm.The height of implant can be 1-10mm, and it is 1.5-5mm usually, and described height is preferably 2-3mm.Can be regarded as described design limiting factor be, the design closable joint, make described closable joint to finish and can use by injection molding technology by described two halves are connected to each other.
The surface area effect release rate of drugs of the thickness of membranous wall and shell also must be considered this point when the shape of determining shell and design.The surface geometry of the release area by for example improving activating agent such as the rate of release that fold, recess and handle influence the material that works in the manner known to persons skilled in the art.
Can change the composition of putamina by the PDMS elastomer of modification.For example, can influence the release of activating agent by described composition.For example, what can notice is, if putamina is made by fluorosilicone (for example trifluoro propyl replace siloxanes) or by the mixture manufacturing of fluorosilicone and PDMS, then the release of activating agent will be slowed down, and on the other hand, if the siloxanes manufacturing of putamina poly-by having (oxyalkylene) group or siloxanes of poly-by having (oxyalkylene) group and the mixture manufacturing of PDMS, then the release of medicine will speed up.
Except thickness, shape and the composition of putamina, also can control the release of medicine by the binding matrix (binding matrix) of medicine.
Described shell half (1,2) injection moulding or be injection molded into by film hinge (12) individually is connected to each other.After described two halves are connected, can remove the film hinge from implant.With regard to closable joint according to the present invention, described hinge makes the independently suitable connection of two halves maintenance, can easily realize closure thus.
Can make text will be replicated on the inner surface of shell by text is carved to mould, thereby during injection moulding, on the inner surface of putamina, produce the sign (for example authentication information) of hope.Also can after injection moulding, on the putamina inner surface, produce sign by for example laser.By these methods, can hide secret authentication information.
Can be before or after making described shell closure, preferably before making described shell closure, the nuclear core that contains activating agent of implant is bonded in the chamber (17).
Activating agent (its for example can be medicine) can be by combined in various manners in the inboard one or more chambeies that form of film.And the nuclear core that contains activating agent can be a matrix type, and perhaps activating agent may reside in the nuclear core and do not have any substrate.Therefore, the implant that contains according to closable joint of the present invention can be (the nuclear core comprises the rate of release of activating agent and putamina control activating agent) that mixes (rate of release of matrix core and putamina control activating agent) or the nuclear core pattern of type.In both cases, described one or more nuclear core should be filled in the inboard one or more chambeies that form of putamina basically.Preferably, the elasticity of membrane shell material (resilience) helps described nuclear core being full of the chamber.White space between described nuclear core and chamber is unfavorable for the diffusion of activating agent.
Can with activating agent for example with the PDMS elastomer-bonded, by being cross-linked to form the elastomeric sheet material of described PDMS (plate).Cut out disk (disc) and place the putamina inboard from described sheet material, and make the shell closure by snap-fit joint.Selectively, can be at first Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) be sprayed (inject) on the inner surface of putamina, then described disk is placed shell inboard and the shell closure.Polyethylene Glycol is injected in the contact that will improve on the inner surface of putamina between described nuclear core and the shell.
Contain activating agent and wait to place the nuclear core in the chamber of putamina to carry out injection moulding by the PDMS elastomer that is combined with medicine.After placing the nuclear core, by snap-fit joint with the shell closure.
Can medicine be combined with crystalline polyethylene glycol in room temperature.From described material molded sheet (piece) and place the putamina inboard.In case place in the body, PEG just will melt and change the diffusion of medicine.When being higher than normal body temperature, body temperature causes thawing by regulating the fusing point of PEG, can working as.
Also can be at room temperature injection and liquid macrogol or the bonded activating agent of silicone oil in the putamina of closure.
Independently putamina makes in containing the elastomer of medicine and can have the cross-linking system different with putamina.
Also activating agent can be pressed into sheet material with binding agent, cut out disk from described sheet material then.Described disk is placed chamber hole, and by snap-fit joint with the shell closure.In this embodiment, medicine binding matrix not.
Irrelevant with the number and the shape in chamber, above-mentioned being used to added and all can be expected in conjunction with all methods of activating agent.
